Garland won’t even go top 10. Not to say he won’t be good player anyway but he’s not in our range

you can make your point without being hyperbolic. comparing him to mudiay just makes you look dumb.

and he doesn’t have bad court vision. it’s not elite but it’s far from bad.

being so invested in a player that is being mocked from the 6-10 range makes you look dumb because he's not going to be a knick.


no what makes you look dumb is thinking the draft mocks of today aren’t fluid with upcoming team workouts and the combine. it’s zion and then a crapshoot idgaf where he’s mocked that’s irrelevant of you putting him in the same sentence as mudiay which again, makes you look dumb

In fairness fam I think Garland will bring a nice change of pace PG alongside DSJ. Garland is also good as an offensive threat off the ball and I can see him playing alongside DSJ in certain stretches.

Am a fan of 2PG lineups and if we strike out in FA and have to rev up that tank I hope we roll out a two PG lineup with a 3&D wing as well as Knox and Mitch playing the Melo and Tyson roles back in 2013.

He may be in play as high as 4/5. Hopefully, yes, we'll be above his range.

Yeah I hear you. I don't think Garland is a bad prospect but I am not so sure that picking another PG who will play besides DSJ or Kyrie for certain stretches is a good idea IMO. Cause I feel like we should just go for someone else who can be a starter at another position instead of picking Garland who will basically be a 6th man for us. There's also gonna be games where Kyrie or DSJ gets hot and Garland will be basically planted on the bench. It's like what we seen when Mudiay gets hot, DSJ is on the bench and we get mad :lol:

If we are trading down for someone in the same range as Garland then I personally would look into someone like Romeo Langford. He can our starting SG. I still like him. Actually think he's being kinda slept on tbh

don’t think teams will have the balls to pass on rj or ja in the top 3 (even though I would) but I could absolutely see him going 4/5. honestly don’t see him dropping past 6 he’s going to set gyms on fire during his workouts with his shooting.

Coby white is a combo guard that gives a lot of these guards a run for their money imo.
Has speed, shooting, and scoring.
